Hi Apidog Team,

Please consider adding support in the module-level “Bind data source” option to use an existing Apidog request from the same module as the data source.

Currently, data sources can be OpenAPI URLs, or Git-based YAML/JSON sources. It would be very useful if Apidog could simply run an existing request and use its response as the import source.

Suggested flow:

Bind data source → Existing Apidog request → Select request → Choose output type: OpenAPI / Postman Collection / other supported format

This would allow users to handle custom authentication, headers, scripts, and external API calls inside a normal Apidog request, while still using Apidog’s existing import/sync logic.

For example, a request could fetch a Postman collection from the Postman API, and Apidog could treat that response as a Postman Collection source and refresh the module.

This would make the current data source feature much more flexible.
